" A good conductor is a dead conductor"

A lot these so called "celebrity conductors" are ego driven a-holes, because
they 've been spoiled by players, orchestra owners, audiences.
This is not something new to orchestral musicians, they wouldn't be like
this if they make the same amount of money as the players do in the
orchestra.
Money and power corrupt people! Have we seen enough of these in politics?
